What is a tattoo?

Now that you're here, if you don't already know what a tattoo is, you're probably curious. A tattoo is a design printed on the skin. They can be permanent, or non permanent. A permanent tattoo is created by pricking the skin with needles and then inserting the color. This makes an embedded color in the skin that will remain forever. Non permanent tattoos (often called temporary) are created in several ways. One of the ways is through Henna tattoos or they can be drawn/painted on in a variety of other ways
